Sequence. In a simple reflex action: stimulus â receptor â sensory neurone â relay neurone â motor neurone â effector. An effector is any part of the body that produces the response.Here are some examples of effectors: 1  a muscle contracting.2  a gland releasing (secreting) a hormone or other chemical.eflex actions. When a receptor is stimulated, it sends a signal to the central nervous system, where the brain co-ordinates the response. But sometimes a very quick response is needed, one that does not need the involvement of the brain. This is a reflex action.
